The morning sun rose in the east, and seven bells were remembered in the Chiyuan Sword Gate, which were not very loud, but they made people wake up. Lu Mu sat up, did he think that something was wrong? At this time, Senior Brother Zheng's voice sounded outside the door: "Lu Mu, go to the martial arts training ground, there is going to be a sword gate conference." ”

Although Lu Mu didn't understand what the Sword Gate Conference was, he immediately got up and ran to the martial arts training ground. When I came to the martial arts training ground, I found that there were more than 3,000 people neatly arranged in the square. He walked over and stood in the last column, and the whole last column was made up of people his age.

Soon, an old man dressed in purple with a majestic face floated down from the air to the front of the queue, it was the current sword master of Chiyuan, Cangxuan.

All the disciples in the martial arts field bowed down at this time: "Meet the Sword Master!"

Cang Xuan raised his right hand: "Everyone is exempt from courtesy, there are three things to say about the Sword Gate Conference today." First, once in ten years, the Sword Gate recruits new people, and today it is all over, this time my Sword Gate recruits a total of 100 new disciples, and the number is enough to stop recruiting new people. Second, three years later, there will be the Tailing Conference once every ten years, and the Tailing Four Sects will hold a sword conference, the purpose of which is to motivate the new disciples of the four sects, and the conditions are still the old rules, no matter how young they are under the age of fifteen, the top ten will also be rewarded this time. Thirdly, one of the 100 new disciples of this sect was unable to climb his cliff dwelling on the first night of rest, and he was the worst disciple in the history of this sect, and I decided to punish him for working in the horse farm for three years.

Hearing this, all the disciples in the last column looked at Lu Mu at the same time, and he was very embarrassed to see it. Lu Mu was still full of hope yesterday, Senior Brother Zheng said that he would teach the heart method in a month, but now that he thinks about it, there is no hope. But thinking about it, it's still much better than being a beggar yourself, so I didn't think about it anymore.

The Cangxuan Sword Lord continued: "At the same time, I hope that my disciples will continue to work hard, defy hardships on the path of cultivation, go all the way, and shine on this cultivation path of fighting for the heavens, and one day they can break through the sky and become the myth of the Origin Star like the nine immortal kings of the Origin Star." ”

"Yes, Sword Master!" all the disciples shouted in unison again.

When the disciples gradually dispersed, although the new disciples were recruited one after another, they gradually had their own small circles, five in a bunch, and six in a group to discuss the conference.

"I heard that the reward of the Tailing Conference is very precious. ”

"Yes, my uncle is the first disciple of the three generations of disciples, he once won the fourth place, and he was rewarded with a first-grade spirit sword, and I heard my uncle say that the sword is worth the entire family property of our family. ”

"You say how can we recruit a disciple with such a poor physique in our sect, we can't even climb the thirty iron ropes, how can we move forward on this cultivation road of fighting with the sky and fighting with fate!"

"Let me tell you, he was picked up by my grandfather in the flow of gold, he is a little beggar, I heard my grandfather say that he was moved by the filial piety of the little beggar, so he gave him a chance to change his fate. ”

Lu Mu was unmoved when he heard this, and now in his opinion, he can eat enough and sleep warmly, and everything else is no longer important. And he was originally to repay them for saving the old beggar, promising them that they could do anything. Now I have to work in the horse farm for three years, and the most important thing at this moment is how to do my duty.

When I returned to the racecourse after the conference, I saw the uncle walking the one-horned white horse leisurely. Zhao Qing saw Lu Mu and rode his horse over: "Boy, what did I tell you yesterday, look at how dirty it is in the stable!"

Lu Mu suddenly remembered the old man's words yesterday, and hurriedly knelt down at a loss: "Uncle Shi, I'm sorry, the disciple really didn't sleep in such a comfortable place yesterday, he couldn't sleep all the time, I don't know when he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he went to the Sword Gate Conference, and I went to clean up." ”

Zhao Qing glared angrily: "Don't take it as an example, go ahead." Looking at Lu Mu's back, he couldn't get used to the cowardice in Lu Mu's bones, Liu Wei's old boy did pick up a good seedling, but as a beggar, the living environment made him too cowardly. This is very detrimental to his practice.

Since then, Lu Mu got up before dawn every day and cleaned the horse farm to prevent his uncle's blame. A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the improvement in Lu Mu's quality of life has made him look no longer so thin, and his originally pale face has slowly become ruddy.

Every morning, Zhao Qing would watch his every move, and when he finished cleaning the racecourse, he would come to check on him. On this day, after Zhao Qing checked the hygiene of the racecourse, he came to Lu Mu's room and sat on the only chair, and Lu Mu stood obediently next to the old man.

The old man pondered for a while and asked, "Lu Mu, tell me about your previous life." The two had never had such a bland conversation in more than a month.

Lu Mu didn't understand what this uncle meant, but he still slowly told him about his past life.

Since I can remember, I have followed the old beggar to live by begging in the flow of gold, eating alms from others, and sleeping together in winter to prevent freezing to death.

Sometimes I was scolded and beaten while begging. The person I miss the most now is the old beggar.

I heard the old beggar say that he picked it up, so he didn't know who his parents were and where they were from. I don't know why my parents don't want me anymore, so I shed tears as I spoke.

Zhao Qing also showed sympathetic eyes when he listened to Lu Mu's confession, although it was a difficult practice, but it was an exercise of will and heart, but the child in front of him had already experienced hardships that should not be experienced at this age, both physically and psychologically.

Zhao Qing looked at Lu Mu and said: "Child, the journey of life is to encounter all kinds of tribulations, these are not necessarily bad things, as for the old beggar, since you miss him, you can still go back to see him." ”

When Lu Mu heard that he could see the old beggar again, he was very excited in his heart: "Uncle Shi, how can I see the old beggar again?"

The old man in Tsing Yi told him: "My Sword Gate has a rule, anyone who can cultivate to enter the Nine Heavens of the Yuan Qi Realm within three years can enter and exit the mountain gate at will, so you can naturally go to see your old beggar." ”

If you can't reach the Nine Levels of Yuan Qi, you are not allowed to enter and leave the mountain gate at will without the Sword Gate mission, unless you finally cultivate to reach the Yuan Spirit Realm and enter the ranks of the first generation of disciples, you can also enter and exit the Sword Gate freely.

Lu Mu was confused when he heard this: "Uncle Shi, what are the Yuan Qi Realm and the Yuan Spirit Realm?" Although he was also counted as entering the cultivation gate, he had been working in the horse farm since he came to the Sword Gate, and no one had explained the knowledge of this cultivation world to him.

Only then did the old man remember that Lu Mu was just a little beggar in the mortal world, so he explained: "In the eyes of mortals, we monks are omnipotent, we can fly to the sky and the earth, and even more can move mountains and seas. And our ability is to constantly improve our cultivation through cultivation in order to have those abilities. Our cultivation path is divided into nine realms, which are Yuanqi-Yuanqi-Yuanluo-Yuanling-Yuanxu-Yuanwang-Yuansheng-Yuanzun-Yuanxian. And each realm is divided into nine heavens, which happens to be the number of ninety-nine extremes, if you break through these ninety-nine extremes, you can shatter the void and enter the fairyland. ”

Lu Mu listened very yearningly, the Yuan Qi realm is the second realm, that is, if he can reach this realm within three years, he can go to see the old beggar: "Uncle Shi, is our Sword Gate the most powerful cultivator in the world?"

The old man smiled bitterly and said: "The world is not something you can see clearly with your current eyes, there are four major dynasties in our Primordial Star Continent, and Chi Yuan is only the low-level cultivator in the Great Xia Dynasty." There are two major cultivation sects in my Great Xia Dynasty, namely the Huayu Sword Sect and the Tayun Divine Sect, and there are seven subordinate cultivation sects under the Huayu Sword Sect, and there are several large and small cultivation sects under each faction, and our Chiyuan is just a subordinate cultivator of the Great Luo Sword Sect. ”

It turned out that the people in this red abyss, the immortals in Lu Mu's eyes, were only at the lowest level of the cultivation world.

Zhao Qing found that Lu Mu's expression was very shocked, and continued with a slight smile: "Today I will teach you the heart method of this sect, so that you can start this magical cultivation path, I hope you can bring me surprises." ”

After speaking, a yellow book and a green brocade box appeared out of thin air in his right hand, put them on the table, pointed to the yellow book and said: "This method is my sword door heart method, and if you cultivate to the great completion, you can reach the Yuan Spirit Realm, and inside the box is a marrow washing pill, you can practice this heart method after using the pill." I'll see how you're doing in a month's time, and if I'm satisfied, I'll let you go to see your old beggar grandfather in advance. ”

When Lu Mu heard this, the joy in his heart was immediately revealed, and at the same time, his eyes were firm: "Yes, uncle, in order to meet the old beggar soon, I will definitely redouble my efforts." ”

After Lu Mu and his uncle left, he sat down at the table, picked up the brocade box, and opened it carefully, there was a colorless pill the size of a bean grain inside, which was crystal clear and exuding a faint fragrance. picked it up and put it in his mouth, and before he could chew it, it turned into liquid, the taste was slightly astringent, and Lu Mu swallowed it in his stomach with a movement in his throat.

After waiting for a while, it was nothing wrong, but I found myself a little drowsy, and unconsciously fell asleep on the table.
